Sitting on this book again.
Work and life continue to get in
the way. How many times can I use that excuse? I can’t keep using those as
excuses.
I can’t wait to write the wrap-up of this volume to see how long
it took me to finish this volume.
It’s going to be redic.
I finished reading this story over a month ago and I’m finally getting
around to writing about it.
When I read that JCO is included in a BASS volume I’m pretty
excited to plow through the stories to reach and read it. This story was featured
towards the end of the volume and I was similarily excited to read it…but unfortunately,
it did not deliver what I expected.
Thinking of my expectations, and all the changes that I have
experienced in my life over the lifespan of this project I wonder if my
expectations have morphed as well.
Perhaps the “feelings” of expectations the correct
atmosphere to be enveloped in before during and after this story because there
is quite a bit of “expectation” in this story.
The expectation of physical violence, the expectation of a
meeting – or a friendship…
Expectations are a very dangerous thing.
Set them too high
and you’ll find disappointment. Set them too low and perhaps, resentment, anger
jealousy.
So…lesson from JCO – check your expectations.
